Turn on 5G using USSD Code

jof8 — Mon, 22 Jul 2024 16:28:45 GMT

Hi, I have a Google Pixel 6A, sometime ago I used a USSD Code to turn off 5G as I heard that this saved battery on the Pixel phones.

I think the USSD code I used was ##4636## or something similar, but can't remember the exact one.

Now I want to turn the 5G back on again and I can't find the right USSD code that opens up the menu for selecting and de-selecting 5G.

Can anyone advise what USSD code I can use to turn 5G back on again?

Can't you just do this using its Network Connection menu?

I managed to fix it myself by the following settings:

System>Reset Options>Reset Mobile Network Settings

*#*#4636#*#*

General advice for all readers:

Take screenshots

And don't change anything you're unfamiliar with.

3G - WCDMA

4G - LTE

5G - NR

And yes, resetting network settings is best
